Thanks Cindy!
Nice series!
Thank you Scott!
great series of a fun animal, nice find
Thanks Emma!
love the nest!
My friend Martha did, & then held it so I could get the photo!
Did you tease it out of its pit? I used to be SO good at that when I was a kid. I've been trying to show my daughter one of these larvae and seem to have lost the touch. :-(
Thanks Aaron! This little guy played possum when we picked him up but I'm pleased to say soon recovered & made a dash for it!
Athziri, this was my first & I'm looking forward to seeing the adults.
I have seen many of these larvas in Florida <3
Nice ventral view!
